A kinder way to arrange flowers.

Phoam is officially certified by TÜV  Austria for industrial compostability. In the biodegradation test, which requires 90% biodegradation in six months, Phoam achieved 90% biodegradation in 17 days and 100% biodegradation in 25 days. Phoam provides more choice for florists who are looking for a sustainable alternative to traditional floral foam. Incorporating an “earth-to-earth”approach, our compostable floral Phoam returns nutrients to the soil, enhancing its health while reducing waste and supporting
sustainable practices.

Backed by science, committed to change.

Phoam Labs' patented foam was developed to replace the phenolic foam widely used today in the floral industry around the world.

Over the past seven years, following research carried out at the University of Minnesota, we developed a compostable polylactide (PLA) foam. Patents were granted in both the US and Europe in 2022.
